Overview

About 18 Ashington Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

18 Ashington Close is a detached house in Wigan (WN5 0JT). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 94 m² it's 27% larger than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 9 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £254,000 sits 230.1% above the 2001 sale of £76,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£76/sq ft) was about 41.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
